About Baranowski Updated Jun 12, 2026

Minnesota’s tackling engine and tone-setter at linebacker

Baranowski is a proven production player for Minnesota, with EA Sports rating him 78 in College Football 26 and recent coverage noting he led the Gophers in tackles and earned All-Big Ten recognition.[1][2][5] What makes him valuable is the mix of instinct, effort, and durability: reports describe him as a tireless worker who leans on film study and strength training, and his 17-tackle bowl performance underscores high-motor, game-changing impact.[3][4]
